ONE EFFECT OF PROHIBITION.

HANCOCK, Mich, March 25-The
city council of this place has passed an
ordinance which provides that In case
the prohibition amendment is carried
the citv's contract with tho United
Gas Improvement Company, of Phil
adclphia, for lighting the streets with
Gas shall be declared null and void and
that the various fire companies shall be
disbanded. The aldermen investigated
the city treasurers books, and found
that ii the prohibitory amendment
was carried the city would lose an an
nual revenue Of $4,000, and decided
that the taxpayers could not stand
the strain of supporting n fire depart
ment, police department, water works.
gas and electric Lighting. and common
council, too, by direct taxation Re
lrenchn cnt would thus be necessary
somewhere, so the gas company and
the fire department are TO be wiped
out il the cod-water people carry the
day next month.
The above is an amusing argument
against prohibition. 1t is certainly q
queer and shor-,ighted statesman who
would contemplate and attempt to do
away with the fire rather than police
department, or the retronchmevt OF
expenses by abolishing gas and water
works rather than removing tho neccs-
sity for jails, criminal courts and their
attending expenses. The prohibi-
lion law may cut down the revenue
from licenses, but there will be n much
greater reduction in expenses of po-
lice regulations, iails and courts, to say
nothing Of the main advantage in Sc
curity to life and property and the
consequent general prosperity and
Of all the people.

THE Evening Times of a few eve
nings since published the following
paragraph:
The prohibition movement in Texas and
its maneuyerings has lead many to believe
that II is card that is being played by the
Republican party for the next presidential
e.9ction and the breaking up Of the Demo-
cracy. Those of this belief claim that II is
a significant fact that this Is the first time
the prohibition party has assumed Il politi-
cal coloring or had campaign funds to spend.
That old idea about the Republicans
wanting to divide the Democracy of
Texas for national purposes is too
threadbarc tor use in this campain:
and then if there was any foundation
ut ali for such on idea, ii is knocked
into pi by the severance of this cleo
ton from all Others. Democrats OF
Texas will vote for prohibition and
then rally together for their State and
national tickets; and the Republicans
are likely to vote their choice and not
be severed from their party thereby.
AS to campaign funds; that intima-
tor from the times is unkind. The
Times can know where the campaign
fund comes from by reading the pro-
ceedings of the Waco convention and
watching the county meetings. Their
meetings are not secret

The Texarkana Times observes that
For once in the history of politics, a con-

horses trot their own race. The Palestine
convention was almost unanimous against
any dark horse.
Dark horses will have to be obliter-
ated from our system of political con-
ventions, or else very soon enough

have to be return to the custom OF

presents will be made by committee Sc
lected for that purpose amongst al. holders
o. concert tickets. This distribution will
not be made by means of any drawing Of

a basis of relative generosity and aid given
by localities and individuals; so that the
most generous contributors will be the most
literally rewarded.
The articles TO be distributed will consist
of donations from generous sympathizers.
Lists of contributors will be published as
they are received.
Following the humane presidents the
Louisiana State Lottery Company has made
the generous cash offer Of the handsome
